With regional seeding meetings coming up this weekend, it is certainly time to start talking about the tournament.  And what better way to start than by projecting what teams will be seeded where in the various regionals (and sectionals for most of Division 1) across the state. At the above link, we have projected the seeds (using records and information available as of Monday morning; no Monday night games were factored in) for every team in the entire state. You can click on the different divisions and then find the sectional in the drop-down menu to locate the regionals and teams.   

For those new to the girls high school basketball playoffs, or unfamiliar with the process, the teams in each regional are pre-determined by the WIAA. This weekend, coaches from each team in a particular regional will get together and vote on which teams are to be awarded which seeds. There is a format and procedure for these meetings set forth by the WIAA which can be found here.  

Another recent trend at seeding meetings is for coaches to reference their team's RPI rating published by WisSports.net. The RPI ratings can be found here, and include a menu at the left to sort by each division.  

Again, these are unofficial seeding projections and are meant as a guide for fans, to facilitate discussion, and give a hint of what is to come. With teams playing games the rest of this week, these projections are certainly fluid and may change based on the outcomes of said games.  

Below is a list of the current project #1 seeds. To view the full seeding projections, sign up for WSN Xtra here.
